USING THE WEB-BASED ADVANCED USER INTERFACE
Setting up the Router’s Dynamic DNS Update Client
You must register with DynDNS.org’s free update service before using this
feature. Once you have your registration, follow the directions below.
1. Select DynDNS.org from the “DDNS Service” drop-down box (1).
2. Enter your DynDNS.org user name in the “User Name” field (2).
3. Enter your DynDNS.org password in the “Password” field (3).
4. Enter the DynDNS.org domain name you set up with DynDNS.org in the
“Domain Name” field (4).
5. Click “Apply Changes” to update your IP address.
Whenever your IP address assigned by your ISP changes, the Router will
automatically update DynDNS.org’s servers with your new IP address.
You can also do this manually by clicking the “Apply Changes” button (5).
Blocking an ICMP Ping
Computer hackers use what is known as “pinging” to find potential
victims on the Internet. By pinging a specific IP address and receiving a
response from the IP address, a hacker can determine that something
of interest might be there. The Router can be set up so it will not
respond to an ICMP ping from the outside. This heightens your Router’s
security level.
